“Communion with God maketh bitter things sweet, and weighty things light.”
— Samuel Rutherford
—A pastoral note on the subject matter for the morning service sermon
Particularly for parents of younger children, I want to give you guys a heads up that our sermon text very bluntly deals with issues of sexual immorality. I will endeavor to tastefully and winsomely deal with these matters from the pulpit while still speaking the truth in love. I would appreciate your prayers for this!
